Frankly I dont know of Any nations General Officers who would readily admit to such a negligence.

Had a buddy ND a blank round at a remembrance day ceremony. CO screamed "RSM, CHARGE Tpr. BAKER!!! in front of the whole city. Baker got charged, fined $200 or so, was a laughing stock in the mess afterwards (though he couldnt HEAR us laughing, as he ND'ed on a shoulder-arms, therefor deafening him for weeks). Stern talking to and a fine.
If it's a General doing the ND, I suspect the entire KAF staff under his command will have to sit through endless hours of remedial weapons drills and safety classes because " if it can happen to General Fvckhead, it can happen to YOU!"

I can honestly say I saw Two Officers end their career with a ND each during my time in N.I.
One in early 70's and one in late 80's.
9 milli in each case, plus each lost a months wages.
Been out since 1990 but thought that a months pay and forget promotion would still have been normal.
